SIBI-P1 H5283-02
and Pleasant-One
| Root | נעם (n-ʿ-m) |
| Core Meanings | pleasantness, sweetness, delight, beauty, favor |
| Semantic Range | As a personal name, it reflects the qualities of pleasantness, favor, or delight; the root נעם can denote beauty, agreeableness, or graciousness in broader usage. |
| Conceptual Significance | Naaman is notably the Aramean commander healed of skin disease in 2 Kings 5, where the irony of a "Pleasant-One" afflicted with disease underscores themes of humility, cleansing, and covenantal inclusion. The name embodies the Hebrew ideal of delight and favor, often associated with divine goodness. |
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וְ prefixed to a masculine singular proper noun (Np). No pronominal suffix; simple waw-conjunction plus personal name. |
| Rendering Rationale | The name נַעֲמָן derives from the root נעם, conveying pleasantness or delight. As a masculine singular proper noun (Np) with prefixed conjunction וְ (“and”), the rendering "and Pleasant-One" preserves both the root sense and the grammatical form. |
